Kresge Bidg (Official City, State and County Newspaper) eee YOUTH KNOWS PAIN In Boston a 15-year-old boy, an honor student in high school, went out on a lark with another lad of the same age. The two boys “borrowed” an auto that was parked along a street and drove aimlessly around the city and suburbs almost all night. Dawn was breaking when they finally abandoned it and started for their homes. The high school youngster saw a light in his parents’ home, realized they had sat up to wait for him, and was afraid to go in. He wandered about the streets until it was time to go to school. At the schoolhouse door his father was waiting for him. The father escorted him home, sternly A severe lecture was forthcoming. The father, a policeman, tried to frighten the boy by telling him he had committed an offense that might send him to the reform school. When the lecture ended, the boy was sent up to his own room to meditate on his short- comings. Shortly afterward the parents heard a shot. The boy had taken his father’s revolver from a dresser and had shot himself through the head, killing himself in- stantly. And that’s all there is to that little story. It isn’t altogether uncommon to read of children in their early ‘teens committing suicide. Usually their reasons seem woefully inadequate. A parental scold- ing, fancied slight by schoolmates, a failure in studies or sports—and out goes the light. It is unspeakably tragic, pathetically puzzling. Those people who are always talking about the hap- piness of youth and the great joy of being young fail to realize that youth has capacity for unlimited misery. Youth is so pitiably unfamiliar with the world. ‘he slightest mishap can loom up like an earth-destroying catastrophe. The depths of despair open easily be- neath the feet of a boy who is only 15. Consider this lad’s case. Like all healthy young- sters, he felt the urge to do something reckless and adventurous. The best thing he could think of was to appropriate an auto and drive idly about deserted streets—as pointless and silly a stunt as could be imagined. Then, when it was over, came remorse and shame. He felt like a criminal. Who knows what pictures of disgrace and ruin came to his mind as he sat in his bedroom after that parental scolding? They must have been intense. Look at the thing they made him do, It is always dangerous to be severe with youth. A boy or girl getting experience of the world for ih first time can be so easily crushed. The sense of shame is too easily aroused. Of all the correctives in the world, the one that parents should avoid most is fear. It can have terrible consequences. _THE AMERICAN INFLUENCE Motion pictures from Hollywood, mail-order cata- logues from Chicago and magazines from New York have made South Americans familiar with North Amer- ican fashions in clothes and cars, food and drink, work and play. What the Latin-Americans like or admire of all this they have adapted to themselves in their own land. There is a tradition that native foods never taste well away from home. Watermelons must be caten fn the south, beans in Boston, lobsters in Gloucester, oysters in Baltimore and pretzels in Pennsylvania, So it is a question if a hot dog would be so savory away from Coney Island, where the tang of the sea air gives the proper appetite. Nevertheless, the latest impor- tation to be enthusiastically received south of the Rio Grande is the hot dog. In Rio de Janeiro frankfurters are becoming extra- ordinarily popular. They are advertised under the Portuguese equivalent for “hot dog” and in English also. Like the North American variety, the Rio brand flourishes in the neighborhood of amusement places. One shop in the theatrical district of the Brazilian city does a land office business, particularly arouitd mid- might. This stand sports a sign with a fox terrier and a yellow dog to give graphic translation of the American name. Here is another contribution to the rapidly growing eccumulation of proof that America is “civilizing” the world. GROWING INCOMES Than the Internal Revenue Bureau’s analysis of in- come tax returns there is no more accurate and re- vealing barometer of national prosperity and the dis- tribution of private wealth. The analysis for 1928 shows an amazing national prosperity and presages a still wider distribution of wealth in the future. In 1927 the American people who made income tax returns had an aggregate net income of $22,637,317,907, @ fabulous sum particularly in view of the fact that millions of persons make no return. And yet the aggre- fate net income for this year will exceed that figure. Ftom income tax returns can be read another fact that is most encouraging. They prove that American wealth is not divided among a few, but is widely dis- These are the most re- assuring features of this analysis.

It takes all TYPES OF NEURALGIA A distressing pain in the course of a nerve is termed neuralgia. Those who are suffering from this trouble are well aware of the symp- toms. Neuralgia is practically al- ways associated with either a diet deficient in mineral elements or toxic condition within the body and is therefore frequently found with diseases of this type, stich as hys- teria, neurasthenia, anemia, beri- beri, ete. : Occasionally drugs or industrial poisons are responsible for neural- gia. Among these in the order of their frequency are lead, arsenic, alcohol, phosphorus, nicotine, iodine, opiates, copper, silver, ptomaines, and various coal tar products. Neuralgia may be found with any toxic conditions of the body and fre- quently precedes or follows the acute diseases such as influenza, mumps, whooping cough, or chronic diseases such as gonorrhea, syphilis, diabetes and nephritis; or may come as a reflex from various local infec- tions such as decaying teeth, pyor- | rhea, infected tonsils, sinus trouble, | prostatitis, appendicitis, and is often | associated with diseases of the brain | or nervous system. Fractures and bony displacements, especially of the vertebrae and ribs, are very frequently the cause of neuralgia. Z Neuralgia of the Face Usually termedtri-facial neuralgia, | or tic douloureux, is usually caused | by disease of the teeth, simusitis, in- flammation of the inner ear, eye strain, aneurysm of the carotid ar- tery, inflammation of the gasserian ganglion, or vertebral pressure. Types of Neuralgia Neuralgia of the back and head: May be caused by vertebral displace- ment, tuberculosis of the vertebrae,, strains, inflammation of the men- inges or spinal cord, aneurysm of the ; vertebral artery or a reflex from pelvic congestion. Neuralgia Between the Ribs: May be caused by tuberculosis of the spine, subluxation of the ribs ‘or vertebrae, inflammation of the heart, pleuritis, aneurysm of the aorta, exceptionally full stomach, inflam- mation of the spinal cord, etc Neurelgia of the Shoulder: May be caused by occupational: strains, arthritis, cervical rib, inflammation of the spinal cord or meninges, sub- luxation of the vertebrae, or dis- placement of a ligament in the shoulder. There are many other types of neuralgia named after the regions in which they are found, such as abdominal, ovarian, rectal, sciatic, lumbar. The causes are as varied as the ones already enumerated. cloak and suit center, which some- one has converted into a store, but has forgotten to take down the an- cient weather wane.

The latest, and perhaps the most truly international of these enter- prises, is that juct announced by Roscoe Pound, dean of the Harvard Law school, and based on a gift from Chester D. Pugsley of Peekskill, N. Y. Mr. Puggley’s intent, as outlined in a letter to Dean Pound, is to devote approximately $500,000 to the es- tablishing of sixty scholayships for the study of in- ternational law at Harvard, to be awarded to represent- atives of sixty nations. The details of the project remain to be worked out, but it is hoped that each scholarship will be worth $2,000. In 1920 Mr. Pugsley endowed three foreign graduate scholarships in the law school, and in 1924 three in international law. With the peoples of the earth turning increasingly toward international law as an instrument of peece, this gen- erous provision for its study by youths from every quarter of the globe holds incalculable promise. And what a veritable “league of nations” those sixty stu- dents will make when all gather at Harvard! LORD BYNG A POLICEMAN (Omaha World-Herald) The hero of Vimy Ridge has become a Policeman.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Burning Tongue Question: Mrs. H. asks: “What causes the tip of one’s tongue to feel as if it had been burned with hot food or tea? This burning feeling comes every afternoon and lasts for hours.” Answer: The symptoms of a burning tongue are caused by over- acidity of the gastric juice.

Wrinkles Under Eyes Question: Rose W. asks: “Would you advise almond oil for wrinkles under the eyes?
